Toro 160 Amp dead

[Ross]

I purchased a used Toro 160amp ESC and LRP 6.5 around 4-6 weeks ago. I put the ESC and Motor in to a car i'm building at the moment, its the first time ive used these items.

So after binding the ESC to my RX I tried it, the motor has a pinion on but the spur isn't connected to the rear of the car due to the belt tensioner needs fitting. I revved it a few times, all was ok, I worked a bit more on the car,(end points for the steering) and tried the motor again. This time it revved and stopped suddenly with a spark coming from the motor. I disconnected the battery and tried to move the spur/motor, it was very tight. I removed the motor from the car and took it apart, its not good, ie in bits.

This morning I put the setup box on the ESC, all settings had the * next to them apart from the ones below. After setting it all back to standard I tired 2 different motors, these don't work although the PT,RX and servo work fine.

:Turbo 60 Degree
:instant turbo
:Turbo engage slop 30 degree/0.15
:motor timing = 00 degree Push to start
: poles 2
:Punch 48%
:turbo engage slope 45 degree/0.15
:turbo deactivate slope 28 degree/0.15
:wheel diameter 60mm I think it had.


so would these setting affect it, would it cause an issue, it did spin proper quick but there wasn't a load on it so it may just of seamed quick.

I'm not fussed about the motor, the ESC not working is a pain, could it be repaired may be. Have the setting above with that motor combo caused the issue or could of been an issue with either if the products ive purchased?
